I installed this OS on an Intel 865 mobo pc with a 3 Ghz cpu 1.5 Gb ram and Intel mobo video and could never get any display to work so I gave up on it.
I installed this on a Toshiba A100 laptop but it didn't detect the touchpad correctly and I have to continually press the L and R buttons to get the mouse actions to activate. It didn't detect or setup the wireless at all so I couldn't get the internet to work on it.
This is unlike VIXTA 095 in which everything worked except the wireless internet with 128 bit encryption. I had to use a neighbours unsecured internet and was good to go. Vixta worked on the Intel 865.
Ubuntu 7.04 I found to be the best. It has a great interface, detected my dedicated internet and was really easy to work with on the intel 865.
I've been using the livecd's with all the linux OSs mentioned. I am a lapsed linux user and notice that I have to read up on each of these Oss to install them fully to get them to work to the level I am accutomed to with XP.
